  • Fag Hoover.

  • we need a hoover fbi now instead of the watered down bunch of pussys that are in the bureau now. he would of never tolerated that treasonist holder and the other softies in the justace dept

  • Why does not any one cover the fact that he made 33rd degree mason in 1955?

  • Hoover was a idiot for his fantasy spies

  • Hoover was NOT appointed by President Calvin Cooledge. He was appointed by Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone.

  • In the American Communist party a member had to pay dues to be in it. More than half of the party were FBI agents. This kept the party alive and growing. Every year Hoover went to congress and asked for more money to combat the party's increase. They were increasing with new FBI agents though. Congress gave him the money he wanted every year. JFK was transferred to the Pacific because Hoover lied and said Inga was a Nazi spy. JFK was in Naval Intelligence at the time in Washinton DC.

  • He looks much like Graham Henry

  • his father was black. his mother, married to a white man, had an affair w/ a black man. hoover was raised as white and passed. he was told to hate his blood in him by his "father". he went to great lengths to hide this even his birth records were tampered w/ and his biological father mysteriously died at a youung age. such a shame and a scandal.

  • the JFK stuff is wrong i think word got to Former Ambassador Joe Kennedy and JFK asked to be stationed on a real ship in action. Inga wasnt a spy though. but then again hoover thought MLK was a communist agent and thought youth protests were organized by communist money. at one point there were more under cover FBI agents posing as communists then there was real communists in this country, both a credit and slight to hoover i guess. its not like hoover ever stopped spying on the kennedys tho

  • Thank YOU for uploading. Am just watching a documentary on German T.V., Phoenix, on J. Edgar Hoover.
